Remember to book the Waverly Tour in advance...wasn't necessary last year but just in case might want to book them. Also last year some of us arrived early and the gates were closed, if it goes down like last year they start to roll up @ 6:45 but will NOT let you in till 7:00. So don't panic when the gates are closed and locked and you don't see anybody.

Just a reminder about the tour of the Ford Truck Plant on Friday!!!!!

All individuals touring the plant must first be willing and able to comply with the following requirements:
1) Tour participants must be physically able to complete a walking tour of approximately one (1) hour.
2) Participants must follow all plant rules including:
Safety Video: We will watch a safety video before beginning the tour which will go over some of the below items in more detail.
Plant Floor Requirements: Safety vests and Safety glasses are required whenever you go out into the plant. If you wear eye glasses, they are not adequate unless they specifically have a Z-87 safety rating. You should wear clear Z-87 safety glasses (non-tinted) over your eye glasses if your eye glasses are not Z-87 rated. Body, Paint, Stamping and the Tire Room each have more specific protective equipment but our tour will not enter these areas.
Pedestrian walkways: Stay within the painted walkways as you walk throughout the plant. Cut across the assembly lines where the green areas are painted on the floor. Do not enter in areas painted red on the floor. Only exit the building through pedestrian doors (not door intended for vehicles).
Powered vehicles: You must observe the following Powered Material Handling Vehicle (PMHV) safety guidelines:
Always observe the 2 foot rule – no one within 2 feet of the vehicle while it is running
Make eye contact with drivers to confirm who has the right-of -way
Cell phones and Radios: Talking on cell phone when in motion is strictly prohibited.
Participants may not touch or operate plant tools, vehicles, or equipment.
3) Vehicle parking: Restricted to Ford products only (Ford, Lincoln, Mercury, Mazda). If you drive a non-Ford product, you must park at Gate 0 in the area designated for non-Ford vehicles.
4) Dress Code: KTP has a casual dress code.
No high-heeled or open toed shoes are allowed.
5) Photographs: Guests are not allowed to take photographs or videotape without advanced, signed approval by the HR Manager.
6) Participants must follow all instructions given by the Tour Guides.

Knob Creek Gun Range 690 Ritchey Lane West Point, KY 40177

The Knob Creek Gun shoot will be going on from April10th-12th. Most guns that you can imagine and I'm sure some you can't will be there. You cane rent or bring your own. For those not wanting to do the Waverly Tour after the Ford Truck Plant this is a real good show to see. They are open from 9am-6pm. Admission is $15 for adults and children under 12 are $5. I did not know this was happeneing at the same time as the meet or I would have made accomodations for this. Maybe next year. But since the Waverly Tour is an individual tour and no group number is needed I thought I would throw this out there.

This will be an unnofficial event so it will be on an individual basis so no official guide will be done.

As a side note, for any that attend please let me know if this will affect your attendance to the Shogun restaurant. Thank you and enjoy!!!!

I was not meaning anything special, heck maybe even the back corner or something. Less chance of door dings if we are together because I am sure the other Rauder owners will be careful. That would leave just the outside cars at risk and only from one side!

Itinerary Change!!!!!!!!!!

Due to all the rain we have been getting and are planning to get next week we will have to cancel the Squire Boone Caverns and Jailhouse Pizza activities.


We do have a plan B and are getting the final details worked out. Should be able to post before the day is out. Thank you in advance for your understanding.

Due to the persissance of the rain we will have to cancel the Squire Boone Caverns and Jailhouse Pizza activities.
When we visited it a few weeks ago they were nearly flooded out, and with us getting rain consistantly from then up to the Meet time we feel it will be safer to go with an alternative agenda.


Mike Linnig's Restaurant

9308 Cane Run Road
Louisville, KY 40258


Car cruise is from 12 -3:00pm

Arrival time- @11:00am
Departure time ???pm


This will be an noncompetition a car show. Just a show n shine. There is no fee, it will be free.

Due to being plan B, we were unable to get the room we had last time reserved.

I would ask anybody that has a tent/canopy to bring it along with chairs to sit and relax in. I will be bringin a small canopy.

Going with the relaxed setting you can order your food at any time, or if can visit another fine establishment for dinner

This will be the only activity planned for the day.

The weather forecast for saturday as of now is...partly cloudy with a high of 62 degrees...

While I can't stay for the festivities, I'd be interested in taking a shot of a group of Marauders under the stars one night if enough are interested and can provide a site for the shoot that's not washed out by city lights. There's a thread in the photography subforum that showcases some of my work. If not this time, it's something I'd be interested in doing at a future event.

I'm located about an hour north of Louisville.

There has been some concern over the practicality of this car show, I feel this show will be a good time to give more exposure to not only the cars but the web sites as well. People bring their cars from all over to attend this show, it would be a great opportunity to start a relationship with some of these people.
So in order to get a good space those leaving for the car show with need to arrive at the show as early as possible. TJ and my self and others will be leaving @ 9:15. This is not canceling the breakfast, when done eating just head to Mike Linnigs.
@ 2:00 we will be heading to Jailhouse Pizza in order to arrive there @3:00.

Had to go to Alabama and Baltimore last month so I can't make it but hopefully the weather won't ruin the weekend for those that make it there.
With the possible bad weather stretching from Texas to the Midwest, the Lufkin,Texas event may see some liquid sunshine also and since its 200 miles from me I'll have to pass on it also. Other than the weather hope everyone has fun.
